Get your art and drink on in Long Island City… but don’t breathe too deeply.
Looks like Jackson Ave really needed those bike racks – Long Island City
Art and food in the hood… with a little twist of toxicity. How very LIC.

I could use a $15 drink ar Dutch Kills after a long bike ride. Thats for sure!
Any word on what the owners of McReilly’s are up to?
They took down more of the scaffolds around 10-63 so you can see it better now. I think it is one of the better looking new buildings. The corner balconies look nice although I’m not sure their view down on traffic would be all that interesting. Although it might be a little interesting to watch pedestrians scrambling to get across Jackson.
Yes, you could place bets on who will make it across the street or not.
Walked by there today too. It’s looking good. It’s always nice when the netting comes off of a building. At least one building resembles the rendering.
Great building and those balconies look razor sharp!
The 10-63 building is freaky sharp and makes feng shui defense absolutely necessary. Nasty chi for occupants of whatever building the pointy part is aiming at. The older building had the corner chamfered. Of course it was a nicer building, imho. Oops, here we go…have a nice day
